Every Third Thursday: The Ultimate Programmable Smart Snowboard

The latest episode of "Every Third Thursday"

The world’s first fully programmable open source snowboard—it’s the ultimate interactive board! In this episode of ETT, Dave Lee and the Signal Snowboards crew team up with Matt Davis from namethemachine, Samy Kamkar and Alex Nano, to build a snowboard that acts like a video game controller to control the playback of the music. The crew build sensors into the snowboard and create custom software to gather data and manipulate the soundtrack based on the boards motions. Signal rider Daniel Brown tests out the snowboard at Bear Mountain, creating his own custom park riding soundtrack.
